Nasal mucosal microRNA expression in children with respiratory syncytial virus infection
24 Mar 2015
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection is a common cause of pediatric hospitalization. microRNA, key regulators of the immune system, have not previously been investigated in respiratory specimens during viral infection. We investigated microRNA expression in the nasal mucosa of 42 RSV-positive infants, also comparing microRNA expression between disease severity subgroups. METHODS: Nasal mucosa...
